Prijetno bivanje v konstrukcijsko malo drugače zasnovanem hotelu.
Pros:

Všeč mi je bila oprema in velikost sobe. Robustna vhodna vrata, fotelji v sobi.

Cons:

Razdelilec za elektriko za evropske vtičnice, parkirišče pod sobo, tuš je v slabem stanju oz. Teče vidabiz pipe in tuša istočasno. Slab wifi signal v sobi. V kopalnici je deloval v sobi pa se je stalno izgubljal.

Overall good stay, however awful shower
Pros:

Lovely hotel in old building. Liked the quirky rooms and hotel layout.
Booked very last minute as accommodation for a wedding nearby.
We would have loved to have dinner in the restaurant but didn't have time.
Room was clean, however the bed was a little soft for my liking.

Cons:

The room we stayed in was on the top floor of the hotel in the eaves. The shower head was attached to the bath taps but there was no way you could stand up to shower as the bath is in the corner under the sloping ceiling. Water was a trickle. Possibly the worst shower I've ever had! If staying in the same room just have a bath!

Room was hot so a fan would have been good.

Will NEVER go back and how its got 4*s amazes me
Pros:

Breakfast was OK but wouldnt give it a big score. Full English just like any Full English minus the Black Pudding, rest of the selection was basic and sub standard.

Cons:

Hotel is run down, A/C was broken and only sent out warm air, decor looked almost as old as the hotel (400 years), style was outdated and made Faulty Towers look tip top, window seats had rips/holes in them, bed was incredibly uncomfortable with poor pillows (1 for each person), bathroom outdated and tired.

Laba viesnīca autentiskā Oksfordšīras stilā.

Brokastis bija labas, bet būtu gribējusi lielāku izvēli. Numurs bija plašs un ērts. Laba atrašanās vieta, tuvu pilsētas centram. Laba kvalitātes un cenas atbilstība.

Cons:

Vannasistabā vēlams kosmētiskais remonts.

Charming place recommended
Pros:

Beautiful old building tastfully decorated, room was a decent size with the addition of a table and chair. Lovely size bathroom with a good size bath, nice and clean to and it wasn't the most expensive room

Cons:

Was more than happy with everything...if I'm super critical I can see some folk might winge about the car park, as the court yard is tight although there is an over flow car park
